You breathe a word against my ear
Everything I wanna hear
Soft and low, a secret told
Making my whole body cold
Your lips are close but never touch
And somehow that's too much
I lean in, you pull away
Keeping me in disarray
Your voice is velvet, dark and low
Telling me just what to know
Every syllable a chain
Pulling me through joy and pain
I can't tell what's wrong or right
Tangled in your words at night
Every murmur is a trap
But I'm falling in your lap
Don't say it out loud
Don't say it out loud
Keep it just between us two
That's what I want from you
Don't say it out loud
Don't say it out loud
Murmur is the only way
That I wanna hear you say
Murmur low, murmur sweet
Make my heart skip a beat
Murmur dark, murmur deep
Secrets that I wanna keep
Murmur soft, murmur slow
Tell me things I shouldn't know
Hold me close and hold me near
Murmur in my ear
The silence after is the worst
Like a bubble about to burst
But I'd wait a thousand years
Just to have your murmur near
Every breath you take is mine
Tangled up in every line
I don't care if it's a lie
Murmur till the day I die
Every word you never said
Echoes louder in my head
Keep it quiet, keep it small
But I hear it through it all
Murmur low, murmur sweet
Make my heart skip a beat
Murmur dark, murmur deep
Secrets that I wanna keep
Murmur soft, murmur slow
Tell me things I shouldn't know
Hold me close and hold me near
Murmur in my ear
Murmur...
Murmur...
In my ear...
Never disappear
